Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag coming up, but there are some real highlights if you’re patient. The water is sitting at 74°, which is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The window kicks off with a bit of a wait. The first real action is on Monday morning, July 6th. Jaconé has a 6 ft S swell pushing through, with a period of 11 seconds. The wind is a bit tricky – light from the WNW – so it’s cross, not ideal. The energy is solid though, with a combined swell energy reading of 1042. It’s a bit messy for the morning, but there’s a pulse in the water.
Monday afternoon is where it starts to get interesting. The same S swell is still running at 6 ft, but the wind switches to a light ESE breeze, giving us a clean cross-off. The energy jumps significantly to 1360, and the conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers. This is a standout session for the more competent crew.
The real standout, however, is Tuesday morning, July 7th. We’ve got a 3 ft S swell, but the period is a very long 16 seconds. This is proper groundswell. The wind is a clean offshore from the NNE at 10 km/h. The water will be glassy. This is a point-break / reef dream scenario – long, drawn-out lines. The energy is still moderate at 767, but the quality will be there. This is the pick of the first week.
Tuesday afternoon sees the wind swing onshore from the WSW at 30 km/h, which kills it. Not worth it.
We have a couple of small, clean windows around July 10th and 12th, with offshore winds and SE swells, but the sizes are small (3 ft to 4 ft). The swells have long periods (13-14 seconds), so they’ll have some shape, but it’s a waiting game for a decent set.
Then we hit a bit of a lull from July 18th through the 20th. The swell drops to tiny 1 ft to 3 ft, and the energy is weak (144 to 246). You’d be fighting for scraps.
But hold on, because the long-range looks promising. On Monday morning, July 21st, we get a solid 6 ft S swell with a very long period of 15 seconds. The wind is offshore from the NE at 15 km/h. The energy is strong at 1428. This is another excellent session for experienced surfers, with clean, offshore conditions. It’s a week and a half away, so keep an eye on it, but it’s a beauty on paper.
Stay safe, and I’ll see you out there.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Jacone is 14 km (9 miles) from the city of Saquarema. If you plan a holiday in Rio de Janeiro, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saquarema. Saquarema has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
